베트남 문화와 도이 머이 정책 이후 베트남 경제 발전과 지속가능성에 대한 논의

Abstract

Vietnam is the third largest trade partner of the Republic of Korea and South Korea is the number one foreign investor of Vietnam. From this development, both countries develop their relations tighter and it is necessary for Koreans to understand the history and culture of Vietnam. At the same time, Koreans must understand the nature of Doi Moi policy that achieves the current economic development of Vietnam. In addition, the efforts of the Vietnamese central government to reach a sustainable development are needed to be understood. The adoption of Doi Moi in 1986 was the results of the failed experiences of 20 years and it became proof of the fact that the market economy is essential for economic development. During the late 1990s, the successful results were witnessed not just in agriculture but in many areas. More than 30,000 enterprises began to lead the economy and the national growth rate reached 7% to end the long poverty of the Vietnamese people. Doi Moi policy emphasized the globalization of Vietnamese economy that reduced the risks of the government policy change with a globally interconnected economy. At the same time, the central government tries to overcome the socio-economic problem of mal-distribution of wealth that is the common phenomena of the early stage of fast economic development. For sustainable development, the central government launched a special project to overcome the balanced development between the urban and rural areas. "Decision Approval Master Plan of Economic-Social Development of Can Tho City to 2020, with a Vision to 2030" is a good example and it can be a leading model for the future development of entire Vietnam. The success of the sustainable development of Vietnamese government is important to Korea, too. For the sustainable development of the economic relationship between these two countries depended on the Vietnamese future. This is why the better understanding of Vietnam is necessary for Koreans.
